ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND MULTIMEDIA PLAYBACK METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17838850 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND MULTIMEDIA PLAYBACK METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an example electronic device that includes a main processor and at least one auxiliary processor. The main processor obtains moving image data and separates it into image data, audio data, and timestamps. It generates second audio data by adding header data to the audio frames and transmits it to the auxiliary processor. The main processor also generates second time information based on time information received from the auxiliary processor and plays back the image data based on the second time information. The auxiliary processor plays back an audio signal based on the received second audio data and generates first time information about the playback time based on the header data.
- The electronic device includes a main processor and at least one auxiliary processor.
- The main processor separates moving image data into image data, audio data, and timestamps.
- It generates second audio data by adding header data to the audio frames.
- The second audio data is transmitted to the auxiliary processor.
- The main processor generates second time information based on time information received from the auxiliary processor.
- The image data is played back based on the second time information.
- The auxiliary processor plays back an audio signal based on the received second audio data.
- The auxiliary processor generates first time information about the playback time based on the header data.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in electronic devices that require synchronized playback of image and audio data.
- It can be used in multimedia devices such as smartphones, tablets, and media players.
- It can also be utilized in video conferencing systems and virtual reality devices.
Problems Solved
- The technology solves the problem of synchronizing image and audio playback in electronic devices.
- It ensures that the audio signal is played back at the correct time relative to the image frames.
- It provides accurate time information for synchronization purposes.
Benefits
- The technology enables seamless and synchronized playback of moving image and audio data.
- It improves the overall user experience by eliminating any delays or discrepancies between the image and audio.
- It allows for precise synchronization in applications such as video editing, gaming, and virtual reality.
Original Abstract Submitted
An example electronic device according to various embodiments of this document may include: at least one auxiliary processor; and a main processor operably connected to the at least one auxiliary processor, wherein the main processor may be configured to: obtain moving image data; separate the moving image data into image data including plural consecutive image frames, first audio data including plural consecutive audio frames, and plural timestamps corresponding respectively to the plural consecutive audio frames; generate second audio data using the first audio data by adding header data to each of the plural audio frames; transmit the second audio data to the at least one auxiliary processor; generate, based on first time information successively received from the at least one auxiliary processor, second time information; and play back the image data based on the second time information, and wherein the at least one auxiliary processor may be configured to: play back an audio signal based on the received second audio data; and generate the first time information about a playback time of the audio signal based on the header data.
